I read that WP report too. IMHO this can only be related to RSA

I have been hearing rumors lately that factoring may not in fact be as
hard
as we have heretofore supposed. Algorithmic advances keep eating into
RSA
keys, as fast as hardware advances do.
So far, not much affect on elliptic keys.
Except that all elliptic keys of the extremely useful gap-diffie-hellman
group are potentially subject to techniques analogous to those that are
attacking RSA.
